World of Warcraft Dragonflight Takes Off

Blizzard announces Dragonflight has taken flight in World of Warcraft, offering the latest expansion to the long-running MMORPG. This introduces new zones, new content, and (drumroll), the ability to ride dragons. Here's the previously released Take to the Skies Launch Cinematic and a Survival Guide to help players get started. Read on for more:
The new Dragon Isles continent is comprised of five vibrant zones, which are some of the largest by area in the history of WoW: the Forbidden Reach, the new starting zone for the dracthyr race; the primordial Waking Shores, an untamed land brimming with elemental energies; the windswept Ohn’ahran Plains, home to proud centaur clans; the expansive Azure Span, where tuskarr fish amidst arcane ruins; and gleaming Thaldrazsus, the seat of power for the dragon aspects and home of the dragon capital city Valdrakken.

Dragonflight introduces the first ever race/class combo for World of Warcraft, the dracthyr Evoker. Featuring an abundance of character customization options and starting out at level 58, dracthyr Evokers are the first ranged damage class to be added to World of Warcraft since the game’s launch 18 years ago. Players can channel the magics of the dragon flights, maneuvering across battlefields as they heal their allies or damage their foes while utilizing all-new Empowered spellcasting.

Take flight early on in Dragonflight with Dragonriding, an all-new and exhilarating means of aerial exploration, where adventurers can dive down from height on ridable Dragon Isles Drakes to gain speed before pulling up on the reigns to glide and swoop on built momentum. Besides competing in timed trials and multiplayers races, players can collect a bevy of account-wide appearance customizations and skill upgrades for four earnable drakes throughout the Dragon Isles on their journey to the new level cap of 70.

WoW's magic started dying with flying mounts and the dungeon finder. Traveling on foot was a thing for the history books and only at quest areas you'd find other players. Bye random encounters exploding into all-out guild wars half an hour later. Proper delayed gratification got replaced by instant, lesser gratification. Such a shame.
Didn't flying mounts exist from the very beginning?
Not quite. Flying mounts came in the first expansion, but for most expansions after they restricted it so that you can't fly straight away until you've fulfilled certain criteria (eg explore all the major parts of zones, get reputation with a faction to a certain level etc), so normally the first part of an xpack was still ground-based, much to the chagrin of a lot of players. Dragonflight is a bit different - you get the new Dragon Riding within an hour or two of play and can zip all over the place, but you can't ride your normal flying mounts, only ground ones.
